The spectacle of the colossi is absolutely incredible. I can’t believe this came out in 2005. Way ahead of its time. My favourites were the 9th and 13th colossi. There’s definitely some issues I have with the game though. I thought it was incredibly tedious when you were attempting to stab the colossus and your character continuously slips and is unable to hold on. It adds realism, sure, but it makes it a lot less fun. I also wasn’t a fan of the open world, I understand why it was the way it was and with the obvious limitations of the PS2, but it just felt like wandering through empty environments on the way to your next objective was there to fill some time. I’ll for sure be giving the PS4 remake a go sometime. Even if it’s just a graphical overhaul, I can imagine enjoying it even more.
